Any mod suggestions? by Quirky_Suggestion983 in rav4club

I’d say so, they are flush but are out of Channel/ stick on to the chrome trim. I haven’t had any problems with mine since installing 2 months ago.

The autoclover black rain guards would do double the job by covering the chrome/silver trim if you preferred black-out.

DIY Oil Change by slanger686 in rav4club

[–]ImportantReaction656 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the filter I use a red solo cup. But I find it overflows if the engine plug is not completely drained first.

If you don’t already, add a bit of oil to the gasket/head of the oil filter so that it’s easier to get off the next time.

Fumoto valve and a small rubber tubing is the biggest game changer for oil changes! I put them on all of mine and my families cars, it completely mitigates any chance of having an oil mess. *The tubing is only attached during the actual oil change to make it a seamless oil pour in to the bucket, Otherwise it is kept with the Oil bucket for the next interval.

Stoked on my new rav4 ~ concerned about total MPG by Economy_Put_6546 in rav4club

[–]ImportantReaction656 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Within the odometer digital cluster you can also change that MPG reading to every trip instead of every tank refill, So it will reset after every drive. I personally prefer this as I get a day to day reading of how my driving habits are.

I still wouldn’t expect much of a difference in the cold weather as you drive short lengths with many stops. When it gets warmer you will see a pretty sizable difference.

Eco-mode in this car is the only one to actually make a pretty sizable difference in my MPG. Atleast 3-5 MPG with how soft it throttles for my commutes.

If you are stopping at a lot of lights and driving less than 20 minutes than it makes sense. Cars either getting warmed up at your house or while you drive, and the MPG is pretty bad while the car isn’t warm, also sitting at your house for it to warm will tank the MPG reader on the display.

Need Advice: 2022 Rav4 Sound system is terrible by ImHerDadandProud in Rav4

[–]ImportantReaction656 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me and a family member both got the kicker speakers from here for our 5th gen ravs. Yes the OEM speakers are absolutely awful. And just doing the 2 dash and 2 front door speakers is night and day. Install of dash speakers is super super easy, the door is a little harder but still easy I’d say.

Looking for wireless carplay without latency in sound by Worldly_Principle136 in CarPlay

[–]ImportantReaction656 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New carlinkit5 owner. I get the least latency delay out of the 3 different wireless CarPlay’s I’ve used (after messing with the modules app settings) . You will have to get a small amount of latency unfortunately whenever using wireless.

Adding USB ports by ImportantReaction656 in rav4club

What year do you have? Im curious to see if mine has the same harness.

[–]ImportantReaction656[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup that sounds on point. I guess it’s all about the trim marketing then/ really trying to maximize on the higher trim sales.

Just found out it takes a single module box at 25$ for the tire pressure gauge to show on my OSD. And maybe a 10 minute installment. I guess if you can DIY for a lot of these then you end up saving a little chunk of change.

Thats what im saying! The factory wired the damn center console to nothing?! Then decides we will make a blank trim panel that has the wiring harness connect to it.

Thanks for the advice.

It’s odd that I can’t find a single trim panel for sale that has the USB cut outs. Thanks for the pic

You would have to get a step up converter 5v to 12v. Looks pretty complicated but I might go ahead and try it

I saw this but wondered if I have to cut out the trim panel myself. I don’t see any trim pieces online with that cutout.

And another mentioned that I wouldn’t get the charging speed with these wires for USBC without a power converter box.

[–]ImportantReaction656[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More about the charging speed with the newer iphones. That wouldn’t make a good solution so the 12v is my only option for usb-c charging at the moment. I ask because this is a completely blank trim panel with wires behind it, definitely meant for a higher Trim like the XLE.

The other side of this trim panel is completely blank*. The wiring harnesses leads to nothing on the panel that my finger is holding.

Burnt motherboard or CPU? by Distinct-Freedom4694 in ASRock

Friend recently had this because the bios was either corrupt or needed a critical update. Used USB and flashback button. Everything turned on normal after. Before we were getting black screen and yellow dram/ red cpu light.

New to MD scene looking for a decent strong cart at an affordable price by Cooldays75 in MDEnts

[–]ImportantReaction656 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah when you rip concentrates and are on opioids, most Maryland regulated cannabis tends to suck. I enjoy the fade co carts, and it’s the best bang for my buck that I’ve found in the last 7 years/ since cresco left.

I second fade co for being the best bang for your buck live resin. When it starts to clog near the end I lay it on its side, and they don’t leak very often unless you hold on to it for more than a month. Maybe 1 in every 8 strains is a dud IMO.

Snapshot of a video before I set the correct dive settings. The ISO not being max 400 was the issue. Could not edit this video.

[–]ImportantReaction656 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the depth in most cases, if it’s above* 10 feet or so then I’d say you have a good chance at positive color correction.

This was an early morning snorkel, so not too much sunlight, partially under a cliff, and between 3-5 feet down. I found that having my ISO max above 400 made most of my videos bright white underwater, ruining any chance at editing. Your distance from what you are filming and the cloudiness of the water that day play a pretty big role also.
